Interactive boxes associated with text?

Feb 25, 2013 5:54 PM

Hello,

I am wondering if anyone knows of a way in InDesign to associate text with interactive check or text boxes so that when I change the text, I don't have to change all the interactive boxes seperately? Maybe in paragraph styles?   I am using CS6.

 

Thanks for your help!

    Please provide me some more informations so that i have a better understanding of this concern .

     

    Are you looking for a creation of a form through with you can get the informations from the persons , as in Indesign we can do that but we need to have a server connectivity and that can be provided through Acrobat .

     

    So please tell me the workflow and the brief idea about the situation along with the Operating system and the product like is it a Suite or individual Indesign .

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. 

     

    I am creating a form that has checkboxes before a line of text or a text box after a question.  So what I have been doing is putting all the text in a text box then putting individual checkboxes or text boxes where I need them.  This document is like 30+ pages long, so when I change text, I end up having to change a lot of interactive boxes too. I am wondering if there is a way to link the interactive boxes with the text so that when the text moves/changes, the box moves with it.

     

    Hope this clears it up.

     

    Thanks again!
